The inspiration for this card came from the current CASology challenge, carnival theme, and a tutorial I watched by Jennifer McGuire: Distress Ink Bleed. It looked like fun, and I gave it a try on this card. I would have liked more of the blue on the stamped image, but didn't want to redo it. So I added a blue accent in the twine. I cut the banner from burlap paper, what a cool product that is! And I received a pin from a friend on this button treatment. Loved the look and thought it would be great on this card. Thanks for stopping by, and Happy Stamping!Terri
